New Broadway Cast of Funny Girl, Lea Michele - I'm the Greatest Star lyrics
[New Broadway Cast of Funny Girl, Lea Michele - I'm the Greatest Star lyrics]
Listen, I got 36 expressions!
Sweet as pie to tough as leather
And that's six expressions more than
All them Barrymores put together!
Instead of just kicking me why don't
They give me a lift? I think it’s a plot
'Cause they're scared that I got such a gift
Well, I'm miffed
Cause, I'm the greatest star i am by far
But no one knows it wait!
They're gonna hear a voice a silver flute
Ah ah ah ah they'll cheer each toot
(Hey, that kid is terrific, huh?)
When I expose it
Now can't you see to look at mе
That I'm a natural Camille
As Camille I just feel i've so much to offеr
(Hey, listen kid I know
I'd be divine because) i'm a natural cougher
Some ain't got it, not a lump
I'm a great big clump of talent laugh!
Ha ha ha ha ha! They'll bend in half
(You ever hear the story
Of the traveling salesman?) a thousand jokes
(Stick around for the jokes)
A thousand faces
I reiterate
When you're gifted, then you're gifted
These are facts i've got no axe to grind
Hey, what are they blind?
In all of the world so far
I'm the greatest star
Who is the pip with pizzazz?
Who is all ginger and jazz?
Who is as glamorous as?
Who's an American beauty rose?
With an American beauty nose?
And ten American beauty toes?
Eyes on the target and wham
One shot, one gun shot and bam!
Hey Mr ziegfeld! Here I am!
I'm the greatest star i am by far
But no one knows it that's why I was born
I’ll blow my horn till someone blows it
I'll light up like a light
Right up like a light
I'll flicker then flare up!
All the world's gonna stare up
Looking down you'll never see me
Try the sky cause that'll be me!
I can make 'em cry! I can make 'em sigh!
Someday they'll clamour for my drama
Have you guessed yet who's the best yet?
If you ain't, I'll tell ya one more time
You'll bet your last dime
In all of the world so far
I am the greatest, greatest star
Sweet as pie to tough as leather
And that's six expressions more than
All them Barrymores put together!
Instead of just kicking me why don't
They give me a lift? I think it’s a plot
'Cause they're scared that I got such a gift
Well, I'm miffed
Cause, I'm the greatest star i am by far
But no one knows it wait!
They're gonna hear a voice a silver flute
Ah ah ah ah they'll cheer each toot
(Hey, that kid is terrific, huh?)
